I am running a one-mile race tomorrow. Since I've gotten the Layman database re-loaded onto my macbook I can get back to the searches that I like to do.
It turns out that there have been very few MLB players with the first names of Miles or Myles. I found two up until 2016 - I really need to update the data now that I've restored it. I found five players with a last name of Miles.
None of these players got onto a Kellogg's card. So, I went the extra distance and attempted to find someone who had a Kellogg's card. Nope. I got desperate and used the Spanish word Milla. Hey, that will work. Felix Millan will have to do. He is in the 1976 Kellogg's Baseball card set.
I will try to get back to the cards. Millan was also included in the 1974 Kellogg's set.
Update - I ended up racing someone named Miles. Since my qualifying time wasn't very fast I ended up running with lots of kids between the ages of 12 and 16 along with some old guys instead of being with the 17 - 30 year-olds who run fast. I ended up far in front by the end of the race with a time around 5:18 - 5:20. Unfortunately, the FAT system screwed up and had me at 5:27 and not even winning my heat. It was a good starting point to try getting myself under 5:00 by the Summer.
Have fun on your run!
